studio tour

Vintage ironing board........not used at all for ironing, but pressing, rather.  I've always disliked ironing, so such a relief to find out that "pressing" a garment you're in the midst of making is a completely different thing.  Feels more like putting on the finishing touches.  (brown linen skirt, cut on the bias.....love the way it drapes.)

Textile and fiber stash, thread......sewing patterns and books.

I re-potted this kangaroo succulent last night in an amazing Bauer Pottery planter that Delip pulled out of the garbage at the local auction house.  It has one little chip, but is perfect, otherwise, and I love the color next to my orange scissor pot.  This yellow cabinet was a find at last year's Gold Rush, and is the perfect height for cutting.



















See the empty cabinet at the left of the picture?  I'm still waiting for you to come and sew with me!  Bring your own machine, or we can pull out the old Singer.  Come for dinner and an overnight and we can sew in peace and drink wine 'til the wee hours of the morning.  I'd really like that.
